Funded Activity Summary

Neurotrophic Active Natural Products: Total Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Neovibsanins A and B, and Analogues. New chemical entities (drug candidates) that promote neurite outgrowth have significant ramifications to mankind as they have real potential to repair damaged, or grow replacement, nerve cells affected by neuro and central nervous system (CNS) degenerative disease (e.g. Alzhiemer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's etc). This scientific endeavour will reveal new drug like molecules for potential biological and clinical application, thereby assisting a substantial proportion of Australians suffering from these debilitating diseases.
